    New hammock first; I'd suggest either a Dutchware Chameleon or anything from Dream Hammock. Keep using the Underquilt you have for now, and then when funds allow buy a top quilt.

    I see the slight extra weight from a full length to be worth the benefit of full coverage from foot to head. I would only consider a 3/4 if I was going to be using it in temps above 70 degrees.

    Really like the design. Maybe I'll give it a try sometime; seems pretty easy to retrofit to an existing underquilt.

    If you could add some sort of vertical central support you could hang one end of the hammocks to that and the other end to different walls/corners of the cabin. Just a thought.
